✨ NAME ✨

ipe_init — Entry point of IPE. periodt.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ipe_init (void );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• void — no arguments, like literally none; it’s giving solo main character energy 🙈

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this is called at LSM init, which happens early during kernel start up. During this phase, IPE registers its hooks and loads the builtin boot policy. Slay.

👑 RETURN 👑
